A member asked:

Does a comprehensive metabolic panel blood test include a test of blood glucose levels?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Hi. Yes it does. If you have the blood drawn fasting, you have a good way you screen for diabetes (fasting serum glucose). The CMP also measures many other important blood chemistries. To your health!
